The Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study is a large cross-national research study, conducted in partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO). The study has surveyed young people aged 11, 13 and 15 years every 4 years since the mid-1980s and has grown to include 50 countries across Europe, North America, and Western-Central Asia. Over the past 40 years more than 1.6 million students have participated. HBSC aims to advance understanding of adolescent health behaviours, health and wellbeing within social contexts, inform national and international health promotion policies and practice, and foster collaboration among researchers, policymakers, and practitioners. In this paper we share the history and development of the HBSC study covering: i) theory-driven and novel research impact, ii) unique long-term trends in adolescent health behaviours and perceived health and wellbeing, iii) methodological rigor to allow cross-national comparison, and iv) embedding youth involvement and maximizing policy impact.
学龄儿童健康行为（HBSC）研究是一项大型跨国研究，与世界卫生组织（WHO）合作开展。自20世纪80年代中期以来，该研究每4年对11岁、13岁和15岁的青少年进行一次调查，现已扩展到欧洲、北美和西亚中部的50个国家。在过去40年里，超过160万学生参与其中。HBSC旨在增进对青少年健康行为、社会背景下的健康与福祉的理解，为国家和国际健康促进政策与实践提供信息，并促进研究人员、政策制定者和从业者之间的合作。在本文中，我们分享HBSC研究的历史与发展，内容涵盖：i）理论驱动与新颖的研究影响；ii）青少年健康行为以及感知到的健康与福祉独特的长期趋势；iii）允许进行跨国比较的方法严谨性；iv）让青少年参与其中并最大化政策影响。
